Kamaal Rashid Khan takes a dig at Dhanush

Actor
and producer Kamaal Rashid Khan has been booked for making defamatory comments
while providing the review of ‘Raanjhanaa’ movie on You Tube. According
to police, the actor is charged with Section 66 A of the IT Act. His case is
registered in Seema Puri Police Station in North-East Delhi. The case was
registered on
Monday.

Kamaal
Rashid Khan recorded a 8.52 minutes video on You Tube. He was reviewing movie
‘Raanjhanaa’. In his review, first he took a dig at the director of the movie
for choosing an inappropriate title. According to Kamaal, since ‘Raanjahanaa’
was not a romantic movie but a political thriller, putting ‘Raanjhanaa’ name
was appropriate. He used many derogatory and abusing words for the director and
the movie. Then he went on to take a dig at the lead cast of the movie,
Dhanush. Kamaal used very derogatory words for Dhanush and tagged him as an
incapable actor. He also pointed out the skinny figure of Sonam Kapoor and
advised her to gain some weight. He recorded his video in Hindi.

Police
told that Kaamal might get arrested also in this case. The complaint was filed
by Dr Bheemrao Ambedkar Vichaar Manch. R L Kane, who is the secretary of Dr
Bheemrao Ambedkar Vichaar Manch, said that the video was uploaded on You Tube
on 29th July. He
claimed that Kaamal has made casteist remarks against Dhanush.

Kamal
Rashid Khan boasts of more than a lakh follower on twitter. He is known to
throw nuisance on actors by speaking foul about them on social networking
sites. The film fraternity had earlier approached Federation of Western India
Cine Employees (FWICE) complaining about Kamaal. FWICE General Secretary Dinesh
Chaturvedi had then said, “We have been told by many from the film industry
that they want a complete ban on KRK. This man has been behaving in an
irresponsible manner. He should learn to respect people and observe some
restraint. But we can act against him, or issue him a show cause notice, only
on a written complaint.”

When
Kamaal was contacted, he said, “My tweets are unique. I taught others how to
make an impact. If AmitabhBachchan follows me, it's for a reason. I
don't write what's popular. They say ‘Lootera’is
mind-blowing, brilliant. I say ‘Lootera’ is rubbish. I am nobody's
servant. Nobody pays me to speak good. I tweet what I feel. I won't ever say
anything to pander to someone. I am a very busy man. When I spend my few
precious minutes every day on Twitter, I better get to express my view.”
